Wow. ROF nerfed to 3.6 rounds per minute from 4.6. While I have never been a fan of the tank, as I never quite got a handle on it. But I never thought it was OP going up against it. Yes, its a solid tank, but its sides and rear are butter, and the lower glacis is easy pen as well. I can understand the previous nerfs in dispersion values and so on, minor tweaks to reduce its effectiveness. But such a drastic drop in DPM?

Also, the T40 got a similar treatment as well. The derp reload got nerfed bad as well.

So, last nerf they increased the gun's dispersion, which was okay. It just meant you needed to get up closer to be effective, but they also decreased its traverse by nearly 20% which meant getting closer left you open to exposing your thin rear and side armour by being circled or flanked.

Now the already slow reload becomes glacial.

Well driven, the Hetzer with derp was an effective tank that was a lot of fun to get out of the garage in.

Looks like its going to be just another sniping TD, albeit one with good frontal armour.

When SerB finds out there is actually a decent tank in German tech tree. It gets nerfed in a blink. Meanwhile Russian tanks are getting buff buff and buff for no apparent reason, then gets nerf after getting several buffs to justify there are not biased towards anything.

When people complain about some non-Russian tank being underpowered , We get........

Working as intended! No russian bias! Look who strikes again

But in all honesty, I'm pretty fine with the changes, even though the Hetzer is on my stat-redemption list. The thing still has wicked traverse even after the Nerf (because let's face it, those who club with it have the traverse boosted by crew skills), it is still fully capable of one-shotting people with that howitzer, still doesn't have to face tier 6 tanks, and it still has that angled armour. So it shoots a bit less frequently? Well maybe it's drivers will have to treat it less as a tier 4 T18 and more like a real TD.

I'm even fine with the Cruiser nerfs (and I use the IV for crew skills, so am well versed to clubbing in it), both of them are brutal in their tiers, and they still will be, but players will just need to tweak their playstyle slightly to account for the changes.

While its still an alright tank, I just think the nerf is just over the top. A 20% decrease in DPM? Perhaps this is to compensate for the buffs to the Stug, JPz4 and JP? All three had a pretty decent DPM buff recently.

The nerfs to the Cruisers seems alright though. The 3's smaller clip reduces the burst damage, but with the randomess of the lower tiers, a faster clip reload might actually be a good thing. The 4's reload probably won't be felt much, the tank's speed and manoeuvrability can ensure it stays in cover during the reload.

Speaking of lower tier nerfs.... Pz.4A any one? Any tier 3 tank with a 700+ average dmg seriously needs a look. Spam HE against tier 2/3s at 200 alpha and 6 rounds/minute, and HEAT against 4s. Plus great mobility, 10 degree depression and big health pool............. Perhaps I shouldn't be giving WG ideas.

Pz. IV A is OP as well, don't let WG know

Might change to the 75 mm, but if it goes below 60% win rate for me, I'll sell it. I do significantly better in the DW2. I play the hetzer only to see if I can improve enough in it to be as good as I am in the DW2.
